More than just a hangout place.

It all started with a dream to be able
to help and sponsor great charities on an ongoing basis. So we thought
of opening a “not-for-profit” cafe to raise funds and do some good in
this world!

We will distribute our profits to: Habitat For Humanity (www.habitat.org.nz) and The A21 Campaign (www.thea21campaign.org).

We run the cafe with the assistance of a team of passionate and
dedicated volunteers. With them, they bring energy and enthusiasm that
money cannot buy.

This initiative is started by House of Praise Church of New Zealand
which is established in November 2002, is a 100% volunteer-based church
that has been run purely by passion! So volunteering is nothing new to
us but we welcome you to join us, our motto is “if you can’t afford to
donate money, why not donate your time!”

We are dedicated to make a difference in the community and believe
through “ngopi” we are able to finally achieve this dream. So next time
you are in the city and looking for a place to eat or buy a coffee think
of “ngopi” knowing that you have made a difference with your beverage
or meal purchase.
